Frequently asked questions
Cirrhosis is a late stage of liver scarring (fibrosis) caused by long-term liver damage. Common causes include chronic hepatitis B or C, alcohol abuse, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and certain genetic or autoimmune conditions.
Cirrhosis itself cannot be fully reversed, but its progression can often be slowed or stopped with proper treatment. Early management can prevent serious complications.
Management focuses on:
Treating the underlying cause (e.g., antivirals for hepatitis, stopping alcohol use)
Monitoring liver function regularly
Managing symptoms (e.g., swelling, fatigue, confusion)
Preventing and treating complications like infections, bleeding, and liver cancer
